Liners aren’t essential for the nappy system to work but they make life just that little bit easier.

Liners let the fluid through to be absorbed into the nappy whilst catching the solids – for easy disposal.

Littlelamb paper liners are convenient but do have a financial cost over time. They are made from recycled paper (with no polyester content so they won’t end up on a beach), biodegradable, flushable, live septic tank friendly, compostable and chlorine bleach hasn’t been used in their manufacture. However, do not flush paper liners if you have old, broken or damaged pipes.

All Littlelamb organic cotton, bamboo and microfibre nappies come with a free washable fleecy liner to use instead of paper liners.

Which ones to use then? As a rule of thumb I use the washable fleecy liners when I’m at home and paper liners when I’m out and about.
